Installing
- Adjust new tie rod to length
- Coat tapped hole thread with D6 locking fluid
(arrow).
Note:
Apply one drop only in 2nd thread of rack. If too much
D6 is used the release torque when next
disassembling will be too high. No D6 must get onto
steering rack.
- Tighten tie rod to the specified torque, 70 Nm (52 ft
lb). Always use a torque wrench.
